Mitt Romney Believes That Barack Obama Was Born in the U.S.

Proving to America that he is indeed one of the most well-measured and reasonable voices in the Republican Party, Mitt Romney wants us all to know that he does not believe that the Barack Obama is involved in a massive conspiracy and cover-up to hide the illegitimacy of his presidency…

In advance of the fundraiser with Mitt Romney and Donald Trump on Tuesday, the candidate's senior adviser Eric Fehrnstrom tried to set the line on CNN a short time ago.

"I can't speak for Donald Trump," Fehrnstrom said. "But I can tell you that Mitt Romney accepts that President Obama was born in the United States. He doesn't view the place of his birth as an issue in this campaign."

It's a little bit of a disappointment, but we all knew he was going to have to cede some ground to the centrists.
